| Kai's verdict | S-tier for aesthetics. If you care how it looks more than how it's made, this wins. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately. | A-tier. Best for cinematic image-to-video. Pair with Runway for coverage. |
